Possible upgrade

Hi, so its been a good 10 years since I had my PC built here and it has served me well. But I think its about time for an upgrade and some stuff I guess is outdated to hell.

What I am currently running
CPU: Intel i5-3570
GPU: GTX 1060 3GB
MB: Asus P8Z77-V
RAM: HyperX DDR3 1600 2x4GB
STORAGE: WD Black TB and Samsung 860 Evo 500GB
POWER SUP: CORSAIR 650W
Got 2 iiyama E2473HS LED LCD 24' monitors also.

Now the changes im looking at getting are
CPU: AMD 5600X or 3600
GPU: GTX 1660 SUPER 6GB (which I have already purchased but later in the year looking at the 3060ti or 3070)
MB: MSI TOMAHAWK B450 (i am a little clueless on the motherboard, but this one im seeing and hearing alot about being good at mid-range)
RAM: Corsair Vengeance LPX 16GB 2x8GB DDR4 3200mhz

Also wanting to upgrade at least one monitor, or be it just having one monitor at 1440p. Primarily I use my PC to game and stream things like movies/twitch while playing, the games I play aren't too GPU heavy, mainly Warhammer 2, LoL, BF etc etc. Just want some suggestions really, is the 5600X overkill for what I want? Also will the power supply be efficeint enough for the upgrade to maybe a GTX 3070 later on.

Thanks for reading.

Is this a PCS order you're planning on doing? I don't think that system is readily upgradable (and at least one of those components isn't available through PCS...).

PCS deal with complete system builds and then on completion of a build you will have a My Accounts section with that order in it.

within that order (so now talking about your earlier system if it is a PCS build), you will have a button to Upgrade and then this will show you all the parts that can be upgraded and to what.

If this is not available (as is likely to be the case here as you are talking almost a completely new build with a new motherboard, CPU, GPU etc), then your only opportunities are:

- self build, which we wont be able to advise on - so suggest you try Toms Hardware,

or

- a new build - which I suggest you try out the configuration and select the parts you want and then post in the check your spec forum section to get assistance on compatability / cooling etc.

It might be possible to send in your case (depends what it is and if the motherboard selected will fit) and have the new components built inside that and then on its completion and return to you, to put back in the components you kept - such as the hard drive - (if they are compatible)
